Free Crazy About Cameron: The Winslow Brothers #3 (The Blueberry Lane Series -The Winslow Brothers) by Katy Regnery

awkward, disjointed, and downright upsetting would be the understatement of the year.
    It all started when Margaret’s younger, very bohemian sister—twenty-seven-year-old Priscilla, whom Margaret hadn’t seen in almost a year—opened the front door of Forrester to greet them.
    Priscilla had interned at Story Imports last summer, while she was trying to get her act together, but it had been a short-lived stint that ended with her chasing one of their French wine reps, Xavier, back to Paris.
    Suddenly home again, she was decked out in a colorful muumuu. Her long brown hair tumbled around her shoulders in fairy-tale waves, a dozen bracelets covered her wrists, and bright aqua feathers hung from her pierced ears. When she swung open the door, she practically fell into Margaret’s arms.
    “ Marguerite! ” she exclaimed, crushing Margaret with her embrace. “Oh God, I’m so glad to see you!”
    “Pris,” she said, thinking Priscilla had nothing on pythons when it came to squeezing the air from another life form. “I thought you were still in Provence.”
    Priscilla leaned back to beam at Margaret, her neon-blue mascara bleeding from her tears. She wiped them away quickly, showcasing her chipped, hot-pink fingernails and a new tattoo, which looked like a long quote in French, on the underside of her wrist.
    “Non! Non, belle soeur. I’m home now.”
    Margaret was finally permitted to draw away and look up into her sister’s deep brown eyes. “Xavier?”
    Priscilla looked behind Margaret, flashing her thousand-megawatt smile at Shane before locking eyes with her older sister. “Quel salaud. Connard. J’en ai plus rien à foutre.”
    All the Story sisters—educated at a Swiss finishing school, at their mother’s insistence—were fluent in French, and it was their language of choice when they wanted a moment of privacy. Margaret cringed. Suffice it to say that things hadn’t ended well with Xavier. The approximate translation of her sister’s soft-spoken tirade was so filthy, it would have made a sailor blush.
    Priscilla didn’t blush. She kept a smile plastered on her face, but her eyes burned, a phoenix-style fever in their fury.
    Margaret flinched at the pain she saw in her sister’s eyes before raising her chin and reaching for Priscilla’s hand .
    “Je suis désolé, Priscilla.” I’m so sorry.
    “Je m’en fiche.” I don’t give a damn.
    And yet it was clear that she did. A lot.
    Shane cleared his throat from behind Margaret. Having forgotten he was there, she dropped Pris’s hand and turned to her nonexclusive, more-and-more-unwanted pseudo-boyfriend.
    Shane cocked his head to the side. “My French isn’t terrific, but that didn’t sound too good.”
    Priscilla’s trilling laugh echoed in the portico as she took Margaret’s arm and pulled her against her hip, facing Shane.
    “Shane! It’s so good to see you again.”
    “Is it?” he asked slowly, looking at Priscilla with narrowed, searching eyes.
    “Of course,” she answered, looking away quickly to give Margaret a flustered grin before dragging her sister into the house.
    Pausing her memories of last night, Margaret stared at the exposed beams in her bedroom and puzzled over the odd exchange. There’d been a quick shot of electricity between her sister and her un-boyfriend. Something indefinable, but palpable. There was history between them—she’d bet her life on it. Maybe something small and insignificant, but something nonetheless.
    A place had been set for Priscilla at the dinner table, but at some point between welcoming Shane and Margaret and the dinner bell, Pris pulled one of her famous disappearing acts, which infuriated Margaret’s father.
    “Damned flibbertigibbet ,” he puffed, settling himself in his throne at the head of the table and directing the housemaid to clear away Priscilla’s place. “If she’s going to stay here for a while, I’d appreciate it if you’d have a word with her, Margaret Anne. Tell her
